The fact that is done and possible is (very) Dutch, but the occupants on those beer cycle's are 80% British, 10% other nationalities and 10% Dutch students, especially in their freshman year.
I had the same experience.. not as a student, but celebrating the 25th marriage anniversary of a family member in Lieren, near Apeldoorn. We just were a bunch of family members pedaling, chatting, having a drink while riding on a sunny summer day over rural farmland roads from farm to farm. Giving the neighbors a drink, a chat, inviting them for the barbecue later that day and on to the next farm. One of the most fun days in my life. But that was some 15 years ago.. never seen those "bier-fietsen" (beer-bicycles) anymore, they are all gone.
@@user-hf1pg2ey6lNo, he's absolutely right. The only people who love bierfietsen are the people making money off them, dumb college students, and alcoholics who aren't smart enough to be ashamed of being alcoholics. At least Amsterdam wised up and started banning them from downtown.
Ha, ha, a beer-bike, long time no see! Before the pandemic, they have been everywhere in Cologne, Germany, where I live. Now they are gone and I don't miss them. You can't imagine how loud this was. When you just heard them, but couldn't see them, because they were around a corner, you thought that a crowd of 5.000 people was marching in and ready to conquer. :))
@@koekum2142 As someone that lives in North-Brabant, I am very happy for Amsterdam that they have banned that cringe wagon. Seriously, I am rlly ashamed to be a North-Brabander, cuz of that thing.
@@pseudonym6648 ik ben zelf in Boxtel opgegroeid. Maar mijn comment was meer cynisch. Om gebanned te worden in Amsterdam zal het eerst een probleem daar moeten zijn geweest. Koorballen en vrijgezellenfeesten kan je overal tegenkomen.
